About Daiga
Daiga Denton brings eight years of counselling experience to her practice. She trained in humanistic counselling and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Daiga works in a grounded, conversational way and aims to help people untangle the feelings that get in the way of living well.
She concentrates on what sits behind anxiety and depression, believing those symptoms point to earlier experiences that still affect day-to-day life.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding those patterns and identifying the blocks that stop someone accessing their own wisdom. The emphasis is on the person as the expert in their life, with the counsellor guiding gentle exploration rather than giving instructions. Daiga uses approaches that encourage emotional connection and bodily awareness alongside practical reflection.
This helps people make sense of painful events, relationship struggles, grief, addiction and other ongoing stresses. The work aims to increase self-awareness, self-acceptance and confidence so people can make choices that suit them. She also supports people dealing with family-related pressures, parenting strain, intimacy issues, eating or sleeping difficulties, chronic illness and life transitions.
Sessions are conversational and paced to suit each person, with room for emotion and for thinking things through. Daiga speaks English and Latvian and works with clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. For many people, the process becomes a steady way to rebuild trust in themselves and to move toward a more manageable, meaningful life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Daiga combines Trauma-Focused Therapy with Client-Centred and Emotionally-Focused methods to support people through difficult experiences. Trauma-Focused Therapy helps to identify and process events that still affect daily life, and it can reduce the power those memories hold. Client-Centred work places the person at the centre of the process, using empathic listening and open questions to help someone discover their own answers. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding emotional patterns inside relationships and within the self, helping people better name and respond to key feelings.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Daiga will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and adapt the methods used. This is a collaborative process - the therapist and client decide what feels most useful as sessions progress.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which offer flexible ways to fit therapy into busy lives. Video is useful when visual connection and non-verbal cues matter, phone sessions can be simpler if bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect in writing between sessions. These options help make therapy more accessible and easier to keep working at over time.
